    Don't use gunk engine degreaser until you watch this bc for some people this not gonna work, specially a heavy baked oil that been sitting for years,
    so in this video we gonna answer: do engine cleaners work ???
    So, gunk Engine Cleaner Foam worked well with degreasing light oil and removed some dust and road grime, remember i used only one time and only for 15 minutes, you can try it for longer time and twice and you will get better results
    this is one of the best and easy ways for degreasing engine bay and how to detail engine bay if you had engine leak before and wanna clean the engine to notes if you had new oil leak
    gunk Engine Cleaner Foam Provides three types of engine degreasers for different level of application and how bad the engine dirt is, and one engine shine

      There's no issue if the electrical components are NOT engergized. Diconnecting the battery's negative post would be sufficient and not reconnecting until everything's completely dry.
      By your logic, most vehicles wouldn't survive a rainstorm while driving through puddles, which begs to question because those components are energized while operating the vehicle.

    Since this Video Speculates that the "Foam" version's use on the Undersided of the Hood ran off quickly and didn't have enough cleaner/time to perform very well...
    Curious if the "Gel" does provide enough "cling" and possibly foam/moisture to help breakdown any grime it hits...
    Assuming the Gel doesn't run off during the 10-15 minutes allowing for it to loosen grim... I assume the Gel might "foam up" during the Rinse Cycle providing more cleaning action? Though probably the need for a second or third Rinse to clear all yhe gel/cleaner?
